Before eating, a racoon washes its food in the nearest available water.
The animal is so fastidious about cleaning its food it will sometimes go
through the washing motions even when no water is available.
Summer Madness
Welcome Bikers
by Ken Covington
THE CAPLAN STUDENT-ATHLETE
The MS BIKE 150 welcomes all levels of ability. It is a tour rather than a
race. Entrants will ride a total of 150 miles; 75 miles each day, through Ore­
gon's beautiful Willamette Valley to help raise funds to support the National
Multiple Sclerois Society and its Oregon chapter. Cyclist groups will start
from Beaverton and Eugene and meet in Monmouth. For information call:
Portland area (503) 223-9511; Clark County, 1-800-422-3042; Eugene Area
(503) 343-9892.
The first day of summer was last Sunday, and I'll bet that already the
neighborhood children are driving some of us batty with the three B s :
beatboxes, bicycles (in your driveway) and baseball (not the game, the ball
itself). Please, before you go off and lose your temper, remember when
you were young and full of that youthful energy.
If the children are getting on your nerves, don't grumble and snort; go
out and join them. Help organize their games, so that not only will it take
your property our of danger, but them, too. Don't ever forget that a child
is a child, and nine times out of ten, they will listen. Maybe you can even
teach them something new.
If you are a parent and agonize at the thought of having a housefull, all
day long, in and out, out and in; don't feel like the lone ranger. In fact, take
alook outside now. See the children that yours are playing with? Well,
they have moms that may feel the same way. So what, you say? Find out
where these children live and their phone numbers; call their moms and
organize to take turns transporting the little darlings to various points of
interest two or three times a week and ease your tension.
The City of Portland has swimming facilities, along with libraries, the
Washington Park Zoo and OMSI, the Police Museum, the Art Museum,
the Sports Museum, and even the Children's Museum. There are also
camps and camp scholarships through the YMCA, and The Salvation Army
offers day camp activities, and all of these are just a phone call away.
Maybe the reason that children are so different today is because adults
are either too busy or too scared to spend time with the children; and as
a result, look to each other rather than looking up to us for direction.
So let's make the summer of '87 one of availability, growth and positive
Register Now for Teen Bike Trips!
A week-long bicycle trip will be a summer adventure never to be for­
gotten! Join an experienced leader and counselors to explore and camp at
different parks. All trips include outdoor camping, cooking, swimming,
and, of course, lots of cycling. The Washington County YMCA offers six
separate trips for teenagers going into grades 8 through 12 in the fall. The
week-long trips will either go to the San Juan Islands, or the San Juans
and Victoria, B.C.
Each cyclist must furnish his/her own 10 speed bike, helmet, saddlebags,
and camping gear. Cyclists are required to attend one orientation and two
check-out rides in order to qualify for the trip.

terested in volunteering, please contact Charlie at 294-3345.
Spaces in all trips are limited. Pre-registration is required. For cost and
dates, and registration materials, please call the YMCA office at 294-3345.
